Session 2 - Tour the ASANT Cafe

Part 7 - Status and Friends

There is more than you might think going on over on the left hand side of your screen!

Status

In the blue bar labelled 'Friends Online' on the left hand side of the page you will see that this member is currently 'Available'. This means that all other members with whom they are friends with can see they are 'online'. If they wish to become 'Unavailable' (not visible to friends) then simply click on the word 'Available' to change the status to 'Unavailable'.

Friends Online

When any of your friends are online (Available) and therefore open to connect instantly via Messages they will appear listed under the 'Friends Online' heading. Note that this member currently has one Friends Online (1). A member also has the capability to collapse and expand their friends list like the example below.

If they appear in the search, click on their name to add them to your ASANT Cafe friends!
